Road dogs again
The Washington Commanders were coming off of a 45-15 loss to the Miami Dolphins after their bye week. They traveled to the west coast to face the Los Angeles Rams and they were 6 1/2-point underdogs. They lost 28-20 and have officially been eliminated from the playoffs after falling to 4-10. They also benched Sam Howell to protect him, and watched as Jacoby Brissett came in and led the team on two scoring drives to get within a score of tying the game.
The Washington Commanders have three games left for the season, and next up is an away game against the New York Jets. They’ve been playing musical chairs at QB since their big off-season addition,Aaron Rodgers, suffered an Achilles injury in Week 1. He’s been medically cleared, but will be really come back to lead a 5-9 team that’s already been eliminated from the playoffs? Miami just finished dismantling them 30-0.
Washington opens as 3-point road underdogs against the Jets. The over/under is 38, which is down 10 1⁄2 points from last week.
DraftKings Sportsbook odds: Washington +3, 38 O/U
Commanders +136
